OK, will spare you some details. First surprise, I got the thing working, but not with Qtractor, with Rosegarden... Oops. Played with that a little bit, as soon as I tried Qtractor, output was gone. Basically, as soon as I started Qjackctl it went mute. Tried various configurations over the last few days - I can be quite persistent... : ) -And finally, out of the blue, Bingo! sound coming out of Qsynth with Jack with keyboard input. Well f*&?* me!
As I thought it was a stupid little thing. I had tried setting up with jack as audio driver before, following your instructions, with no result. But over time I realised that making changes to the settings while jack was still running, would make Qsynth freeze, and I would force quit, or would open system monitor to end process. What I think happened is that before I realised that problem I have tried various configurations, unaware that Qsynth was basically hanging in the background, brain-dead. So nothing would work, anyway. Finally, I tried one more time with jack as audio driver, with nothing frozen backstage, and everything worked as it is supposed to. Took me 6 days from start to finish, but it's done. Now on with Qtractor.
Which brings me to one last question: How do I get the nice shiny black theme???? Is it patent pending or something? : )
